Changed the 10 year old battery on rarely used spare key fob.
Usually just wipe over the interior and dash with a microfiber cloth every year or so. This time I used cleaning products.
Replace sun damaged original stop lights with Wipac units, which are fine.

Busy few days! Fitted a new ORE wheel carrier and replaced the old, scabby steel wheel and ancient tyre with a new matching alloy & BFG tyre.

Also took out the front headlining, covered it, and put it back in. Not decided what I'll do about the sun visors yet though.

Also added ClimAir wind deflectors. Definitely the easiest Defender job I've ever done so far!

Saturday was another day of rust treatment using RC900
Sunday was a trip to Babell for the Staffordshire Land Rover off racing event. Tool the opportunity to add another layer of RC900 while the 110 was parked up in the sun.
Monday was a bit of chassis painting
Tuesday tip run and last of the chassis painting using Corroless paint.
Chassis looks much better.

Also painted front bumper and rear x-member to remove/treat some chips. 1999 Defender TD5 110

Big day for me yesterday, I ordered my first mod for my defender, and I haven't even bought it home yet!


Don't get too excited though... It's a phone holder that replaces the ashtray on the dash Thumbs Up

Reminds me of buying my first defender mods 2 years in advance to actually ever purchasing one. Was a Dixon Bate NATO hitch off eBay followed by a genuine wolf front grille months later.

My parents thought I was mad, but I knew of buy one eventually, just couldn't pass up on prices I paid for them Thumbs Up Stuart

Fixed an annoying rattle in the drivers door. Turned out a couple of the 10mm nuts that hold one of the inner metal panels/window slider mechanism has come lose.
Took the opportunity to also spray some wd40(its all I had) on the door lock mechanism
A quick check of oils and water.
Some WD40 on the winch wire and hook
Adjusted the steering wheel one spline anti-clock wise to hopefully put it back level when travelling straight. 1999 Defender TD5 110

Lovely looking motor you have there, Ive just recieved my wind deflectors and got the drivers side slided in and fitted okat but the passenger side is very very tight the outer plastic seal which goes against the glass is very tight and I can get the top part of the deflector all the way up into the gap Im pushing the deflector up as Im stood on my side rail to stop me pushing the full door up on the hinge! Any fitting tips?
